Chelsea and Arsenal are interested in signing AC Milan winger Rafael Leao at the end of the campaign, as per Sport Italia.
The Portugal international has been a key player on the left wing for the Rossoneri, but he is likely to depart this summer.
Milan are presently ninth in the league standings and are on course to miss out on Champions League football for next season.
This could pave the way for Leao's exit and it is claimed that Chelsea and Arsenal are among admirers of the Portuguese ace.
Leao started the campaign in a slow fashion, but he has picked up form. He has registered 12 goals and 13 assists this season.
He is predominantly a left winger. It is position where Chelsea and Arsenal have lacked consistency for some period of time.
The Blues have used Pedro Neto and Jadon Sancho in the role but neither of them have been consistent over a long stretch.
Arsenal have had the same issue with Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard. Leao will reportedly cost £85 million.
